If I need someone to repair my pickup and my mechanic
needs a half of feed beef and I trade a half of beef to my mechanic for
repairing my pickup - that's free trade. But it is only free trade so
long as the government doesn't find out about the agreement. The IRS says
my mechanic must pay income tax on the value of half a beef.

We literally, no longer have free trade in this
nation. FREE TRADE AGREEMENTS between nations are even worse. They are
administered by un-elected bureaucrats, most of whom are un-American with
the sole intent of destroying our economy and bringing our lifestyle down
to those of third-world countries. In this respect, Bill Clinton and George
Bush have a lot in common.

In December 1994 Bill Clinton introduced us to the
Free Trade Area of the Americas (FTAA). A plan of action was laid out
at that time describing how we would adhere to international law enshrined
in the United Nation's Charter and the Charter of the Organization of
American States.

In January of 2002 George Bush stated, "We're
working to build a Free Trade Area of the Americas, and we're determined
to complete those negotiations by January 2005." Both Clinton and
George W. are carrying out the plans laid out for them by their globalist
handlers.

During the World Trade Organization meeting in Cancun,
Mexico, in September, the Bush Administration called for eliminating "ALL"
trade barriers and export subsidies. Through most of this country's history
it was possible for the American dream to come true. We didn't have a
lot of millionaires, but the typical family consisted of a father who
earned a living, while the mother stayed home and raised a family. When
the kids grew up and left home the house was paid for and the senior couple
retired without a Social Security check, no governmental subsidized housing,
without hospitalization and health care and if worse cam to worse, they
lived out their lives in the homes of their children.

Our economy was the greatest in the world, mainly
because of the protectionist measures put in place by wise and understanding
leaders. GATT was passed in 1994 and consisted of 27,000 pages of rules
and regulations that only a Philadelphia lawyer could understand and no
one had time to read.

That same year NAFTA was pushed through Congress
and our last line of defense against unfair foreign competition was lost.
Our jobs and our wealth migrated to other nations, particularly Mexico
and China. Labor unions challenged the passage of NAFTA & GATT as
being unconstitutional, but the Supreme Court let them stand.

No longer did our tariffs and trade restrictions
force the price of imported goods high enough to keep their price competitive
with goods produced in America.

President Bush talks about bringing jobs back into
America but he has never once shown any signs of ending our participation
in NAFTA & GATT. To the contrary - he not only wants to eliminate
ALL trade barriers but our national borders as well.

As our wealth flows out of this country by the billions,.
more workers are out of work and our living standard is sliding down to
meet the lifestyle of people in the rest of the world. We are fast becoming
a third world country. Show me one job that was created in the United
States by FAFTA. I don't think one exists.

The World Trade Organization just held another meeting
- another global meeting set up to systematically destroy this nation's
economy.
